Won't charge or power up - new battery?

\015 My camera won't charge or power up. I bought a new charging/sync USB cable for it, but the charge light is not lighting up. The camera doesn't power up even when plugged in. I hit the reset button, and the LED next to it blinks red once. I'm not quite sure what that means.Do I need a new battery, or does it seem like something worse and not worth the battery purchase?ThanksDan\015

No Power Battery needed charging, charged it, placed in the camera as usual,s till no power. Just brought a new battery with the hope that the battery is faulty or past it's sell by... Have to say though.. the manufacturer said that there is a little power in the battery so I attempted it to see if there would be any joy, alas still not powering up. I currently recharging the battery to see if this does the trick... however not hopeful... Quite surprised that such an expensive bit of kit is faul

I hit the power button and it turns green for a second but then goes out. The camera and LCD screen do nothing. So I have some sort of power problem. When I put the battery in the charger the charger light comes on for about a 10seconds but then goes out (suggesting that the battery is fully charged). Is this a battery problem (not charging or holding a charge) or a camera problem? I don't want to buy a new battery if the camera itself is dead... Thanks!

I have a Casio Exilim camera which was working fine. I went to use it a few days ago and there was no power. The battery appeared to not accept a charge so I figured it was past its sell by. I bought a new battery and charged it up - still no power in the camera. Any ideas please?

Casio cameras use generally chinese batteries. They are mostly under an acceptable quality. So the battery you have bought may be out of order. I do not think that your camera is out of order.\015\012Try another working battery.\015\012If ...

NO POWER camera shut off in mnid shutter. battery fully charged, but cleaned all the terminals and then charged again. replaced the time/date battery. and also a new CF card. Once everything was done still no power at all. It will not turn on. Someone told me that it was probably the motor. I have no idea, does anyone have any suggestions

Battery charging light comes on (Red) for a few hours, then the Green charge completed comes on. Pressing the camera power on button causes the camera power on light to flash for a fraction of a second and the camera is dead. Tried brand new battery but the results were the same.

Battery Problems CANON A80 Battery Problems
Have had a CANON A80 for nearly three years. The first two years were great. The batteries would last for ages between charges, and with a new baby we took lots of photos. Then the batteries started playing up. Fully charged batteries would only last a few days, or if left would not power up at all. Have replaced the batteries, and the chargers with no improvement. Here in NZ there is a huge wait for repairs, so if it is beyond repair I?ll just re

Fuji S700 will only work using A/C power cord. Recharged AA batteries deplete after several snaps. New rechargeable (charged) AA batteries deplete several snaps. New standard batteries may last for about five snaps. What could I do to make batteries work. It worked fine for 2 years, I have cleaned the battery anodes on the battery cover. Is there anything else I can do? Thanks, Deborah

Change the battery pack when new battery pack is inserted. We thought it might be our charger or the battery pack is just old. So we bought 6 new batteries and charged them on our firends cannon power shot charger put them in her camera and had no problem. We then put them in our cannon and received the change battery pack display with in minutes on some and instantly on others. Is there a issues with the connectors? The latch mechanism that holds the battery in and the ejector spring are also f

My camera worked perfectly fine until the battery went dead. it wasnt the original battery that came with the camera and i charged it with the charger that did come with the camera so i thought the charger just blew the battery with too much voltage so i bought another battery that matches the charger and the camera and when i charged the new battery and put it in, the camera wont even turn on.

When I turn the power on, it beeps and says "turn the power off and on again" plus it shows a battery in the upper lefthand corner. When I turn it off and on, I get the same message. I can view stored pictures but can't take pictures. I have charged the batteries and it makes no difference. Since I have been using and recharging the same batteries since I got the camera, could it just be that I need new rechargeable batteries? I bought the camera in 2004 and love it. Is there any hope for this c

Battery Problem My 18-month-old Canon A70 is giving "change the battery pack" message and turning off constantly, even though I have fully charged three different sets of new rechargeable batteries and rotate them as soon as the message comes on. Sometimes with this message I pull out one charged set and put the same back in, and it works fine for quite awhile, then repeats later. I imagine this is a problem in the camera battery power circuit or something. Never happens when plugged into the co

The rechargeable batteries don't work in my Canon Power Shot A540, they are charged, I even checked them on my batterie checker. Says, full of charge, I put them in camera and it says "change batteries. Same happens with regular new batteries. I got this camera a year and a half ago, I would think it would last longer then that. Please help.

Some of The Canon Powershot A530 and A540 cameras are subject to an advisory recall. Seems that a small spring on the battery compartment door can short out the batteries. Suspect this of yours, in that you mention that your batteries aren't lasting ...
